[Weekend] Updatery

Ah, Sundays. And one of the rare times when we don't have anything planned! It's just shy of 10am and we're still in our jammies, drinking coffee, surfing the net, and channel surfing between a bad Sci-Fi Channel movie, Food Network tastiness, and videos on VH1. Not much else on tap for today...I may do the laundry just to remain caught up, and we may end up going to the Barnes & Noble withour 15% Off coupons...other than that, nothing else is planned.

I could probably do some writing-type stuff today...in fact, I may do some more research on who to send the Love Like Blood query off to next. I've sent it to 2 so far, so I'd like to think I still have a long way to go before someone bites--no pun intended. :p Also, I may start doing some more editing/rewriting/reorganizing of the 2009 Remix of the Trilogy. Get it into more of the shape I want it in, and start red-penning it.

Other than that...looks wide open for today. It's been a nice relaxing weekend so far, with not much happening or planned. Quite nice, considering I was dead tired all week...managed to sleep in a bit (unlike some of my f-list friends apparently!) so I'm feeling a lot more rested than before.

Hope everyone has a good day today! :)

[Weekend] Books!

B&N stop today, bought a book I had a few years ago and for some reason didn't bring with when I moved down to NJ, Roger Zelazny's Great Book of Amber: the Complete Chronicles. I remember really liking this book when I first picked it up (I think at Toadstool up in Keene NH) and almost completely forgot about it until I saw someone with a copy of it at work when I was on the 5th floor...good to have it again! :)

There were a few other books out there that looked interesting, but just didn't quite grab me...well, there's that, and the fact that there's pretty much a glut of "vampire hunter" stories out there right now. Not exactly good for my Love Like Blood (which isn't so much about vampire hunting as it is about making sure friends don't act like idiots ;) ), but I digress...I guess I just go through moods. Still...like my current bout of music collecting, I've been picking up and reading older books I should have read ages ago, such as Le Morte d'Arthur and so on. It's kind of fun going retro on books as well, come to think of it. Kind of like catching up on books I was too lazy to read in high school and college! :p

Of course, I also have the big pile of books I downloaded from Project Gutenberg awhile back that I should read as well...not sure when, but I'll get to them soon enough. Kind of cool that I can get a hold of these online, though, and not have to clutter up our bookcases!

Ah, books...so many of them, so little time... :p
